“Anne took wonderful care of our two year old doodle Zion for 5 days. She is a great communicator which put us at ease while we vacationed, sending texts and videos to us. She kept Zion busy on walks and playing games with him. We will use Anne in the future!”
“Amy is amazing!!! Our anxious dog loves her so much and that makes us feel so great when we leave town. I know that our dog is in the most caring hands. Amy is our go to whenever we travel because our dog says so!!”
“Natasha took such great care of our dog, Chico, while we were away. We really appreciated all the photo updates and check-ins she sent throughout the stay, it gave us so much peace of mind knowing Chico was happy and well cared for. She was also very respectful with our home, which we truly appreciated.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child. They were always large dogs like Dobermans, standard Poodles, Golden Retrievers, and Old English sheep dogs. My current dog is a smaller terrier mix. I’ve been to dog obedience school with my dog and have watched many a Lucky Dog episode. I’m looking for a way to keep active in retirement. I’m interested in walking pets to keep active in retirement. I know what it is like to try to find a trustworthy person to care for my pet and want to be there for others if I can. I have a fenced yard for my dog. But I also walk him three times a day. I consider my dog to be a member of my family and will treat you dog likewise
“Jennifer is amazing! She took care of our dog and 2 cats for 6 full days at our home. We got pictures and videos EVERY day! It gave us comfort that our fur babies were being care for just as we asked for! We will definitely use Jennifer again for our next trip! Many thanks Jennifer!”
“Laura just watched our two pups in our home this past weekend. She was fantastic!!! Our dogs absolutely loved her, and it was so nice (and less stressful) for them to be able to stay in their own familiar space. It was truly a pleasure to meet Laura, and she brought such peace of mind knowing that our dogs were happy and well cared for while we were gone. I’m so glad we found Laura on Rover. I highly recommend her”
“Kristi was an amazing sitter! This was my first time using Rover and she made me feel really comfortable leaving my furbaby for the weekend. She kept me updated with pictures at least five times a day. She was even kind enough to gift Luna a set of toys that she has yet to put down ever since. Thank you for leaving Luna with a smile Kristi!”
About: I have owned dogs since I was 10 years old and cats since the mid 1970's. I have cared for, fed, walked, played with not only my own, but for friends and neighbors as well. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to walk and care for your pets. Mid-mornings to early afternoons some days, all day on other days. I am currently not available to care for your pets in my home due to having 3 dogs and 2 cats already. Anything can change in the future though.
“Gloree was communicative, professional, friendly and personable. She got along great with my dogs which is no small feat because on of our dogs is aloof. She also kept our house clean. We will be using her again!”
About: With over five years of pet care experience, I got used to pet sit both in France and California. Taking good care of all kind of pets, i know how to adapt and build trust. I offer personalized attention and gentle handling to ensure their comfort and well-being. My commitment to building strong bonds with pets goes along with my flexibility in meeting individual needs. As a 9-to-5 worker in a pet-friendly office, I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m available for walks and visits before and after work, as well as in the evenings and on weekends. This allows me to give your pet the attention and care they deserve without feeling rushed. Whether it’s a morning stroll or an evening play session, I’m dedicated to making your pet's routine as comfortable and enjoyable as possible! ( I can bring your pet along if they’re comfortable in an office environment!) I prioritize safety and trust in every pet care situation, whether at my home or yours. In my home, I have a secure space free from hazards, with cozy areas for relaxation and play. I ensure all pets have access to fresh water, and I keep a consistent routine to help them feel comfortable. At your home, I respect your pet’s environment, maintaining their usual routines and providing a familiar atmosphere. I always take the time to discuss any specific needs or preferences, ensuring your pet feels safe and loved. Regular updates and communication are also key (i love sending pictures!), so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands!
“Allyson took such good care of Lucy while we were away which took away the stress and worry of leaving our fur baby alone. She gave us regular updates which we appreciated so much. We’ll definitely book Allyson again in the future!”
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by cows, goats, chickens, cats, and dogs. This evoked in me a deep passion for animals, but especially dogs. My current occupation is nannying and I have been doing so for 10 years. I have also worked as a petsitter when the occasion arises. I love both of these jobs and this is the reason for deciding to sign up for this app. The way that I would describe myself is: responsible, caring, calm, sensitive, trustworthy, and reliable. I can easily create a connection with children and dogs alike, which makes them more comfortable spending their time with me. I feel comfortable sitting dogs of all sizes. I will genuinely love your pet and will always make sure to respond to his/her needs. Thank you for reading! Caring for pets is something I naturally build into my day. I make time for regular walks, feeding, play, and attention, and I enjoy creating a consistent routine that helps pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, play, and rest. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, making sure they’re comfortable and safe at all times. In clients’ homes, I respect their space, keep everything tidy, and follow all instructions carefully. I also communicate consistently with updates, photos, and any important observations.
About: I have had pets my entire life and they are my prized jewel. I believe the love on an animal is like no other. I have pet sat for years and I will treat every animal like my own! Whether it’s a walk, drop in visit, or over night stay. I will make sure your fur babies get the love, rubs and attention they deserve! I am currently not working and I have all the time to spoil your babies! Whether if you plan a trip in advance or last minute needs, I would be honored to support! My cats are spoiled as they should be. From their multiple cat towers, to their unlimited rubs, I would say THEY truly run the house. I do everything in my power to ensure they are loved and cared for like my own children. I have never met an animal that hasn’t been comfortable with me, and I ensure they are in a calm, safe environment.
About: I have been caring for animals since childhood, as we have always had pets in our home. I lost my beloved cat two years ago, and since then I haven't been able to get another pet, but I really enjoy taking care of other animals and filling the void in this way. in fact, besides Rover, I have a second job, but I manage to do everything because this work lasts half a day. so i can put it all together We live in a 2 person house. Both are very fond of animals. all questions will be asked to you, I mean how many times should you feed your pet? Or how many times does he go to patchwork? and based on your answers, I do everything as you say
About: I provide dependable care with lots of attention, structure and communication so you never have to wonder if your fur baby is in the right hands. I work from home 5 days a week so whether your dog loves long walks, endless fetch sessions or simply some playtime and cuddles i am always available. I used to volunteer regularly at my local animal shelter and because of that I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining routines, administering basic medications and caring for pets with different energy levels and temperaments.

Emma was very professional and caring to our two dogs. She left our home very clean and tidy and most importantly my dogs were happy. She was very communicative and took good care of my dogs. This was our first time using Rover and I would definitely work with Emma again!
Rodrigo took care of my furry son Luke while I was out of town for three weeks. I knew from our Meet & Greet that he would be a great fit, and I wasn’t wrong. He kept in touch throughout my trip and sent me daily updates and pictures. I had complete peace of mind that Luke was in good hands while I was away. He was also super respectful of my apartment and left everything spotless. He even made a trip to the store to get Luke food when he was running low. Luke was calm and content when I got back home, and I know he misses Rodrigo already. :’) Thank you so much for taking care of my guy! I’ll definitely keep you in mind for future trips. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter for their pets.
We are so grateful for Adriana! She did an amazing job caring for our 11-week-old puppy. As you can imagine, a high-energy puppy is a lot of work, but Adriana handled it perfectly, keeping her entertained, active, and well cared for. She was also a wonderful guest in our home. We are so thankful we found her on such short notice and would highly recommend her for pet sitting. We feel so lucky to have had her with us this weekend!
Kim was wonderful with our 14 year old Boston Terrier. He needs extra care, and medications throughout the day, and Kim did a great job of ensuring he had all his meds and meals. Kim was dependable, friendly and clearly a dog lover. Chief was so comfortable with her. She also sent us updates and pictures to let us know how he was doing. We got to go away on our trip knowing that Chief would be in great hands with Kim. We look forward to having Kim take care of Chief again. Thank you Kim for caring so much for our precious Chief.
Rubi watched our fur babies (+fish) for two weeks and she did amazing! She asked all the right questions and put us at ease, since this was our first time leaving them this long. We received adorable photos and check ins. Our cats seemed to love her and we will definitely use here again for our trips. We highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs!
Erin is a wonderful house sitter. Our dog Dante absolutely loves her and her care is great. She gives Dante nice walks and lots and lots of attention in the back yard. She brought in the mail and kept the house in perfect shape. She sends beautiful photos daily. Dante was very sorry to see her leave at the end of the house sitting!
Rupi was great with our dog and we'd definitely recommend her. Our dog is nervous and can be a lot to handle, but she was extremely patient and willing to work with her. She provided lots of updates and we could tell she was really paying attention to anything out of the ordinary.
